Does the property have an average daily temperature during July of 12 degrees Celsius or less?
A theoretical example of this would be a property where every day in July went from 0 degrees overnight to 24 degrees at noon. The average between the minimum (0 degrees) and the maximum (24 degrees) is 12 degrees. This property would be at the warmest end of the suitable temperature scale. Another property may have average July temperatures ranging from minus 3 degrees to 19 degrees thereby giving a suitable July average of 8 degrees. If your property has regular cold periods lower than minus 6 each year, then you will need to get a copy of OLIFAX – 2 which outlines the suitable cold tolerant varieties. If you are not sure about the figures for your property, ask the local farmers who have land at similar altitudes in the area. Weather maps will also give you a general idea for your total region but may not be correct for your specific property. There are often areas within weather map regions that differ significantly from the map data thereby making your property either suitable or
